After the last Nikon D610 price drop, there is a new low price on refurbished D610 cameras – currently $1,299.95 at B&H (was $1,439.95 back in November).
Refurbished Nikon D800 cameras are currently selling for $2,089.

The current Nikon instant rebates are set to expire on January 3rd, 2015.
Today Nikon issued an official statement on the Nikon D750 reflection/flare issue I reported over a month ago:
We have received indications from some users that when photographing scenes in which a bright light source, such as the sun or high-intensity lighting, is at a certain position along the top border of the frame, flare with an unnatural shape may sometimes occur in images captured with the D750 digital SLR camera.
We are currently looking into measures to address this issue. Further details will be announced as soon as they are determined.
Here is some additional information I received in the last few days:
→ Rokinon/Samyang are teasing with a new lens (135mm?).
→ First Nikon 1 V3 price drops are already available in Japan.
→ Nikon 1 V3 received the 2014 Design for Asia Silver Award.
→ Nikon supports AFC Asian Cup Australia 2015.
→ Nikon D7100 – The Pursuit of Passion:
Today’s guest post on Urbex Mecca – Detroit is by Brook Ward (Website|Facebook|Google+|500px|Flickr):
About me: Let me start by introducing myself. I am photographer based out of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and enjoy underwater, sports and HDR photography. Since I don’t get to scuba diving as often as I’d like, most of my photography is focused on landscape and architecture HDR work. I know, I know….you don’t like HDR. I get it and I understand it isn’t for everyone. I practice HDR on the “softer side”, which I think gives it great color but isn’t over saturated. You can see more of my work at http://brook-ward.com
Thanks: I’d like to thank Nikonrumors.com for featuring me a second time. The last time my post was about Shark Photography – you can see it here. Anyway, I truly appreciate the opportunity to share some thoughts, my experience and some pictures with you again.
Before I get into the main article, I have a few additional housekeeping items around location sensitivity and safety/danger:
EasyCover announced new EasyCover camera silicon cases for the Nikon D750 and D810 DLSR cameras. Available in three different colors, the new sleeves are available on Amazon (for D750 | D810) and B&H (for D750 | D810) and Adorama. Currently EasyCover offers camera cases for the following Nikon cameras:
After DC.Watch published their new interview with Nikon’s marketing department executive, several websites started reporting wild speculations based on Kusumoto Shigeru’s comments. As usual in such interviews, Nikon did not confirm anything – they just gave us the regular “we are investigating the possibilities and demand for such product“. In answer to one of the questions, Kusumoto Shigeru said that Nikon will be moving towards high-megapixel cameras in the future because customers wanted that – this has already been going on for over a decade, not sure why it was still a surprise to some:
Tokina officially announced their latest AT-X 11-20mm f/2.8 PRO DX lens for Nikon mount. The lens was first on display at the 2014 Photokina show and will be a replacement for the current Tokina 11-16mm f / 2.8 model. Shipping will start in February 2015, the price will be ¥100,000 (around $800, US price not announced yet).
